"What if you’ve already got everything you need, to be absolutely everything you’re intended to be?"... That made me stop.

You impress and inspire me, Kimbra. Allow me to give you some data to back up how much I admire your work. I’ve been tracking my music listening habits on https://www.last.fm/user/menslar since 2007. You’re currently placed at #25 on my all-time most-played artist chart (out of 11,858 different artists listened to in total), while your track “Top of the World” is currently placed at #3 on my all-time most-played track chart (out of 66,453 total different tracks listened to). So, yeah, I’m an older guy (mid-60s) who thinks highly of you, enjoys your work, and appreciates your brand of creativity. I love being creative myself, but haven’t produced nearly as many creative projects as you have, and I’ve lived longer. But we’re each our own person, as you say. Life presents ups and downs of unique natures to each of us, and we each must deal with the cards we’re dealt while also striving to draw better cards into our hands. It’s tempting to want to peek at what the person next to us is holding, but maybe the game is more enjoyable if we don’t. We’re all a part of the cast of Life, so let’s play our roles true to ourselves and appreciate the final production for what it is.

Absolutely love this

It’s comforting to know that the artists you admire go through the same thought processes, and especially comforting to hear them tell those stories in their own words. Thank you for showing me, and all of us, that we’re not alone ❤️🙏.

If no one cared at all about impressing other people, the world would be really boring and much less technologically advanced, for sure. On birth: seconds after my older daughter was born, they immediately brought her to the weighing table...I was there and reached my hand down, index finger extended, and she instinctively wrapped her tiny hand around my finger and just held it for a little while. I'll never ever forget that moment :)

To put you at ease, newborns don’t have perfect eyesight at birth they develop that at around 5 months of age.

“It is not until around the fifth month that the eyes are capable of working together to form a three-dimensional view of the world and begin to see in-depth. Although an infant's colour vision is not as sensitive as an adult's, it is generally believed that babies have good colour vision by 5 months of age.”

G-o-d is watching you always. He sees you and knows what you are thinking before you say the words. He wants you to see the Light and have Love in your heart. This should be evident to both the Palestinians and the Jews. The War they are fighting is out of Hatred... Their G-o-d wants them to have Love in their Hearts, but sadly their Heart has been hardened [Think 🤔 Quarterflash] and Hatred has Overcome them because they are imperfect humans. The Very Reason Jesus died for them on the Cross.

I Hope that you are well, l know you’ve had your troubles, but you are human and a magnificent singer, songwriter, performer and actress. You have always given so much of yourself from a Young Age that your Love and Joy De Vie is there for all to see. G-o-d sees that, he knows that and he lives in you... He’s your Light and your Love and the Powerful Lifeforce that is Kimbra.

We all Love your Work, your Light, your Joy and your Love. I Hope 🙏 You See This Too…

You just need a Little bit of Compassion for you too K, the Dalai Lama was taught this through the Love and compassion of his Mother.

I'm sure when you... Settle down... [Sorry I couldn’t resist!] you’ll be the best Mother you can be as you will carry heaps of Light, Love and Compassion for your Child... G-o-d will be watching you and marvelling at the Work you do with G-o-d in your Heart! You’ll make a Great Mother K!

Stay safe, Take Care, Always be there.

No Gods No Masters. No god's, no prophets, no sky fairies, no insane 'belief' no unicorns etc..

Nothing except life and what you make of your own. When it's gone all of you goes with it. Anything else is just fantasy, but fantasy is entertaining.

If you explain yourself you have less pleasure. Artist shouldn't explain herself because she will need as much pleasure as she can to channel it later. The only known to me case when explaining yourself is good is when you go through some space step by step and build understanding of that (then explanation is form of expression that leads to greater understanding). But if you explaining to build understanding you wouldn't do it publicly (there is no grace in lack of knowledge. No shame either but explaining belongs to private space).
